Mancio set for Inter extension

Reports in Italy are suggesting that Inter are set to extend Roberto Mancini’s contract, despite the Nerazzurri’s disappointing start in the season.
Market consultant Lele Oriali is one of the Coach’s top supporters and he has been trying to schedule a meeting between Mancini and owner Massimo Moratti to discuss the details.
Furthermore, the club’s intentions seem to be confirmed by the fact that the Nerazzurri boss has just bought a house in the centre of Milan.
Inter are struggling to find their best form in both the championship and the Champions League and the lack in results has also been put down to an alleged rift between Mancini and his men.
Oriali believes that an extension to the boss’s contract may represent a solution to the crisis, which has led to speculation about possible replacements.
Sven Goran Eriksson is the first man on the list, although Inter could also offer him a job as a team manager and not as a Coach.
Chelsea boss José Mourinho and former Inter tactician Hector Cuper have also been mentioned.
